Natori and the Passer-by Heroine

"what?"

Unexpected answer.

"Is what you said true?"

"I don't think I need to lie to you in this kind of place, don't you know me well?"

"...You kid is really mocking mom all the time."

Mom sighed, although she is very sensible, but sometimes she really can't fight back when she is ridiculed like this.

"If you and your father stopped quarreling in front of me when I was a child, maybe I wouldn't be able to learn this way of speaking."

Shi Yu finally sat up straight, but she still didn't look energetic on the outside, and there were some traces of staying up late on her face.

"...Aren't you going to redeem it?"

"That's just a 'boyfriend' I picked up by chance on the road."

"Not a pity?"

"..."

"So do you have a new partner now?"

"What? Does it mean that our family can't even support me now? It's okay, I can support myself, don't worry. "

The tone was as if he was anxious to marry her off.

"Since you don't want to say it, forget it. Remember, mom will always be on your side. Have you eaten yet?"

"I was going to order sushi delivery."

"Then I'll cook some for you now."

She smiled happily, on the contrary, Shiyu looked a little hesitant.

"That's right, Mom."

"kindness?"

"If a person treats you so well that he sacrifices a lot of things to do something meaningless in the eyes of others, but in the end the other party only regards you as a good friend, what should you do?"

"Well... is the other party important to you?"

"…I have no idea."

"Then you can only ask yourself."

The mother's smile became brighter, and the short communication with her daughter seemed to let her get rid of the tiredness of work.

"By the way, I'm going out for a few days," she added at the end, "I'm going with my classmates from the club."

"...Is there something wrong with my ears?"

Mom's smile froze, the disbelief evident in her eyes.

What kind of wind is this blowing... Such a normal activity would actually appear on my lonely daughter.

"Crap!"

Looks like it's time to go rent-free.

----

Ying Lili's home has many rooms, and ordinary people may get lost when they walk in.

But it doesn't matter, this is all money from the public.

Said to be stylish——

"Mom~! Didn't you recently have a project about Japanese-English exchange students?"

In the study room, any random decoration here is enough to pay a year's rent, and Ying Lili is trying her best to tease her mother to act like a baby.

"Yes, what's the matter? Are you interested in going back to school?"

Yuriko, Yinglili's mother is not working in the study at this time of night, but uses a computer to run a two-dimensional large BBS in a distant country. Yinglili's parents are the founders...

"What are the conditions?"

"What are the conditions for my own people? You can go there if you want, but do you go there to learn design or orthodox painting?"

Baihezi pampered Yinglili's head, knowing that her daughter hadn't seen such a coquettish appearance for a long time.

The last time it happened was when she was in junior high school and wanted to expel a male classmate who harassed her—ahem.

"What conditions are there for ordinary people?"

"Do you have friends who want to go? Yes, the procedures are quite complicated. The key part still depends on your father, but first you need a deposit of 300 million yen."

Ying Lili, who had turned into a Persian cat, froze for a moment, then shook her mother's hand again.

"...Mom~Mom~"

Viscous sweet tone.

"En~? Tell me first, is the child you want to help a boy or a girl?"
